Abstract: This paper combines a system of deontic logic with a system for default reasoning to analyze a notorious philosophical problem: Chisholm's Paradox. The basic approach is to write deontic rules with explicit exceptions, but we also consider the extent to which a set of implicit exceptions can be derived from the underlying deontic semantics.
